Chef John's Duck, Sausage, and Shrimp Gumbo
The procedure for this duck gumbo with sausage and shrimp is pretty straightforward, although you're talking about a full day's project. This can be made with hundreds of different combinations of smoked meats, game, poultry, and seafood — and in my opinion, the more, the merrier. Serve in a large soup bowl with a scoop of cooked white rice, a sprinkle of green onions, and a pinch of cayenne.

I whipped this up after school one day when I wanted peanut butter and a healthy snack. There are many other toppings that can be used with this such as Nutella®, extra peanut butter, granola, fruit, oats, graham crackers, cookies, or cereal. The possibilities are endless!
